Tonight, a homicide investigation underway in Montgomery County.
A man was stabbed to death in Wheaton near several local businesses.
Our Shamari Stone live tonight with what we know so far.
Hey, show.
Hey, Angie.
Right now, the suspect is still on the loose.
Police continue to investigate.
And around the corner from where I'm standing is where friends
of the man who was stabbed to death had a vigil.
Standing in sadness at the scene where the man
in his 40s was stabbed to death out here on the 11th.
5,000 block of Elkin Street in Wheaton, shortly after midnight
on Sunday, some people tell me the man and the suspect knew each other,
were hanging out at a nearby bar and got in an argument,
that dispute continuing outside to the street, and that's
when they say the suspect stabs their friend and leaves the scene.
Tonight, police have not released a description of the suspect
or the name of the man who was killed.
Business owners and bartenders telling us there has
been a lot of crime in this area,
which is near the mall and the Wheaton Metro stop.
This guy says he knows the man who was killed.
It's shocking because I knew the person.
I knew him.
He's a good friend of mine.
He also worked on my car at the auto
repair shop where I did my work done.
So I've known him for a few years.
He's one of the nicest people you could ever meet.
He's down to earth, never caused problems for anybody,
which is a good thing around here
because there's quite a few people that do cause trouble.
But he wasn't one of those people.
Now, tonight, Montgomery County Police tell us
that they will release the name of the man who was killed tomorrow.
We have the name, but we're not releasing it because police
say they need a little more time to notify his relatives.
Meanwhile, if you have any information about this fatal stabbing call,
Montgomery County Police in Wheaton.
I'm Shamari Stone. Back to you, Jim and Angie.
